IMPROVEMENT IN DEVICES FOR UNLOADIN G WAGONS- The Schedule referred to lntheae Letters Iatent and making part of the same.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, Isaac WILLIAMS, of Westfield, in the county of Hamilton and State of Indiana, have invented a new and improved Device for Unloading \Vagons; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable, others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being bad to the accompanyiug" drawing forming part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents a p'eispective view of my iniproved unloading devioe.

Figure 2 is a'back view of the same.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

This invention relates to a new attachment for farmers wagons, and has for its, purpose to facilitate the unloading of the same, and to enable the persons unloading to immediately make use of their scoops.

The operation of unloading the corn, potatoes, or other vegetables or articles from a wagon is thereby greatly facilitated; at the same time the necessity of handling with the hands a large portion of the load before the scoops can bc nsed to advantage is dispensed with. l v V The invention consists in the use'of a plate, A, made of wood,sheet metal, hard rubber, or other suitable material, and of a hook, at, or other fastening device attached to the upper end of the same.

The plate A is bent so as to be concave on one side. It is, by means of the book a, suspended from the upper edge of the tail-board when the same is let down, and reaches thence down, so that the articles from the wagon may be moved down on its concave scribed.
